The pipelines seem to be full. :))
Somehow i missed the post of Peter Jones. Else i would have
pointed out that the man page is a lesser problem of isohybrid.c
from the viewpoint of QA.
utils/isohybrid.c has serious problems with GPT (for EFI isohybrid)
and APM (for some Macs with whatever firmware).

I did not propose patches yet, because i'd prefer to have the code
of isohybrid.c indepedent of the isohybrid code in libisofs.
It would help with future bug hunts.
But especially this line here is frightening:
memcpy(part->name, "ISOHybrid ISO", 28);
Have a nice day :)
